Ok, Peter peppers are right up there. No need to explain them. As far as something pretty that your wife would like. Bolivian Rainbow by far. Growing one this year and my wife wants to over winter it and several of her friends want one.

This is a venetian sweet hab from smokemaster. Looks more like a 7 pod/pot but has lil or no heat. Strangest thing is it never turn completely orange/red. I let it sit for about 3 weeks when it first started showing color but it was very stubborn.

Overall I find ornamentals rather boring (they're small, bullet shaped, and hot but tasteless), but as a Halloween fanatic I couldn't pass up the NuMex Halloween ornamentals, they produce black and orange peppers! Got a couple of sprouts in the windowsill now to see how they do before I start up some "serious" ones this spring. Obviously won't have peppers by next week, but hopefully I'll have a nice big bushy plant out of this test batch for next year.
